Okay...

Changed my mind... I've decided to start cooking for Topaz again. Still don't have a device, so have to rely on beta testers for now...

Shadowline and NoMercyWWE have tested this for me, and all seems good so far, so here's a release!

It's 21051 from the Rhodium, with a few minor tweaks (OEMDrivers has been SpinLock patched, gxdma has been updated).

You'll need an RUU etc, but hopefully this should work for everyone... Enjoy!

download Hosting is thanks to shadowline. :)

Mirror thanks to f1ip
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
Finally (for tonight)... I've uploaded a WM6.5 ROM, it should be getting looked at and tested by a few people. If it works, I've told them to add a link to here...

Good night everyone!

EDIT:

6.5 boots!

There are some issues with it, so I'll do a quick recook, thanks to conflipper and cmonex for some advice that made it work!

Another mirror (Check Cooked_ROMs\I3v5y)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
These are 6.1 for now (read the post above though).
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
Reading helps understanding :rolleyes:

Corrected my post. :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
6.5 should be here shortly... Just need to upload and get final tests done...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] avers:
Any good news?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
Done!

Check the first post. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] MC500:

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] avers:
Thank you and congrats!

I tried to make it bootable in the last 2 days. :)

Upgrading...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Poodlemastah:
Just upgraded to 6.5 on my topaz, working fine so far. (Booting and everything.)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Ricoroc:
Where i found the ruu_signed.nbh file of l3v5y Topaz WM6.5 room ?

I think that is my problem... :)

All the rooms with "ruu_signed.nbh", i can flash it fine. :confused:

Ps: Je jette l'éponge... aprés ça.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
I extracted it for you. You can download it from here.

Je suis desole, je parle francais a toute petite peu selmont.

I Will try soon as I get home, thank you so much man.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] TheGentAtXDA:
Great to see this thread! Got a few questions:

First post says also a GER version. Is that a ROM with a complete german of WM 6.5?

What about Manila, is the so called newer version a 2.5/2.6 version? And if, in what language?

Your screenies do not show ...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] zimmicz:
Would it be possible to get next releases as nbh images? I am not able to flash this ROM via exe file.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
I will soon be releasing a bunch of 23037 based ROMs for multiple devices (haven't yet got multilingual, but should do probably) and I'll release as NBHs + RUUs.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] zimmicz:
Glad to hear this :) How soon? :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
Hopefully tonight...

There will be two flavours "Light" and "Very Light"

Light is essentially a stock SYS + a light OEM, "Very Light" is a stripped down SYS as well...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
My new 23037 ROM is now up:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=4417245#post4417245

I've switched to a new thread as it's a very different ROM under the hood (no manila etc).
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] pdaextreme:
hi man can you explain how do that, i hace same poroblem and i need the sanish 6.5 room, but i dont know how extract it from .exe to .nbh file to use whit ruu..thanks for u time..
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
2 possibilities:

1) use WinRAR, open the exe file with WinRAR and you will find the nbh file.

2) start the exe file as if you would like to flash. watch the folder where the exe file was in. after some clicks on the windows that the exe file opens you will see that the folder will be filled up with several files, including the nbh file.

Copy the nbh file to another folder, cancel the exe file.

Hi friend, it is possible for you to produce a Portuguese ROM for this?

Kind regards.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] pdaextreme:

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] bukito1:
is it a good rom?????, because i need a spanish rom with winmo 6.5, and work good
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] audischrauber:
Can someone please post the .nbh file of the latest german manila rom?

Because I can't execute the .exe - it ends up in an application error.

Thanks in advance.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
the nbh is inside the exe file. extract the exe with WinRAR.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] audischrauber:
I can't open the .exe file with winrar - but with 7zip I can see 3 files: UPX0, UPX1 and .rsrc?? But no .nbh?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
Die Datei ist zerstoert. Habe gerade meine Kopie von BeeGee's Topaz File Server getestet, gleiches Ergebnis. Versuchs mal mit diesen links:

The file is somehow destroyed. I tested my own copy from BeeGee's Topaz File Server, it does not work either. Try this links:

Hmmm, "audischrauber", Ingolstadt oder Neckarsulm?????

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
Kopiere gerade mein Backup zurueck auf den Server. Die Dateien sollten dann in Ordnung sein. Probier spaeter mal die Dateien von BeeGee's Topaz File Server zu laden.

Just copying my backup to the server. This files should be ok. Check them out later on BeeGee's Topaz File Server.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] audischrauber:
Both of the links don't work - same problem. I've tried already all file sources given in the rom wiki... Are there any other resources available?

@BeeGee

You are absolutely right - there the best car's CAME from....

I own some cars out of the Rallye and DTM era...

But since the late '80s / early '90s I couldn't really get into their replacement products!!

And they will never achieve again what they had been in the past!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
I created RAR files that contain only the .nbh files.

Hope this works.

Had a S5 for testing for 2 days here in Japan. Speedlimit on the highway is 80kph :eek::eek::eek:

But the car is really nice and the engine is amazing. Of course not the basic racing car like the QUATTRO.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kings121:
ok i,m hain a problem....i,m tryin to flash this ROM to my touch diamond 2 but not able to do the flash software is sayin my device is not responding i flashes it with the Topaz-HardSPL_V5_00R5

what could be the problem?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
Rename the .nbh file to TOPAIMG.nbh (case sensitive)

Copy the file to your SD-card (on the root, not into a sub directory)

Make sure your SD-card is formatted as FAT32!

Goto bootloader (press red reset button while holding volume down button)

Make sure to release volume down button as soon as you see the bootloader screen.

Flashing should start automatically.

This should work.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kings121:
i,m not seeing the .nbh file only the RUU_Topaz
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kings121:
could you give me a link to the .nbh file only??

can you also recommend a good radio for sweden or for europe?? not sure what radio i have but my signal strength just droppin from very good to verry bad....i,m no using EnergyROM_TOPAZ_20090921_StandardM2.5
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
Most people seem to be satisfied with 4.49.25.17. This radio is coming as well with the yet released WM 6.5 ROM's
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] gianton:
4.49.25.17 radio works great in Greece.

It's a little bit offtopic, but does anyone know if there are any restrictions/consequences if i host a cooked rom in germany?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kings121:
ok i flash with the 1 that contains Manila but now my phone boot to the windows setup screen and freezes.......

what was that all about?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
That is strange, but I can confirm, the ROM does not boot. Stuck in initialization screen.

I know it was working before. Maybe a problem with the new HardSPL.

I will take the ROM's of my server, they are old anyway.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] berlinberlin:
thank you so much!

no more waiting
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] phankhi:
for the 6.1 there is a bug in the alarm, clicking on the ringtone (sound) it relaunches tf3d.

thank for the rom. appreciate it

alo tried 6.5, found it a bit laggy and some app were not compatible compared to 6.1
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
I'm glad to see you finally got it working! congrats. :D

(note: it seems to configure the sim twice for me. ill post more as i test more. :D)

P.S. Horray for being some of the first outside of HTC, china, and the private club of UDK to have 6.5 on a topaz!!! :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] NoMercyWWE:
Just to report some bugs

The PhoneCanvas from HTC does still not work

and the Voice Recorderd stops working because of not enough memory

as promised i upload screenshots of the build this afternoon
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Thewizzz:
Just downloaded the 6.1 wwe 1.3 version. It seems to hand on running the customizations at around 85%. Screen appears for over 25 minutes already. Anyone else has this problem?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] swissman:
Same Same on my side...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
Forgot to mention, what's in the second post don't work.

Use what's in the first post, and I'll go edit the second post to make things clearer.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
Can you tell me what didn't work on 6.5?

Was the issue on 6.1 when you went into manila->settings tab->sound?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
Hehe... :)

Not sure about the SIM thing... Does it run ConnectionSetup twice then (I'm guessing once after configuration, once after a soft reset)? If it does, then I have no ideas, other than fudging it to not run during setup.

I'm guessing that's the 6.5 ROM?

If so, I'll remove PhoneCanvas (you'll have to suffer with WMs dialler).

Does VoiceRecorder start up? Removing PhoneCanvas will need to more space and RAM so that should solve things.

Thanks for taking screen shots for me! :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Thewizzz:
The download from the first post does the same. It seems there's an problem in the customizations script. Hope I can revert back to original rom.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
Which version?

With the one in the first post, just wait. I know the ROM works (it's been tested for me) so it's just a question of time.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Thewizzz:
You're right. It worked finally! But it took, with the first one, almost 30 minutes. But heck, it works. Great work so far.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] idesmond:
Great! First actual rom for 6.5! Congrats l3v5y!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] pencilcase:
first of all : THANK YOU !

secondly i am getting an .net error on fingerkeyboard :( seems it can't work with the 3.7 yet?

anyone tried it?

update: i'm getting the .netcf error on nearly every application that needs netcf ... seems 3.7. is not really supported by a lot of apps yet .

tried installing 3.5 netcf and still getting the errors after using netcfg ... seems something is missing? if you need/want me to test tonight, please let me know.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Thewizzz:
It seems there is a little bug in this rom. If you go to start --> settings --> sounds touchflo restarts and nothing further happens.

Could by this is also a cause due to tf3d2 tweak by atom is installed.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Smackhacker:
Confirmed. I get the same problem.

Also, I am unable to choose different directories in certain instances. For example, if I am viewing outlook mail and try to change directore from the drop down list to my regular mail I get no response from the screen (also in different programs where I am asked to choose a directory and a file).

Otherwise, good job! It is working.

Feedback

First thanks for the WM 6.5 ROM, we all need it!

Just flashed the WM 6.5 one, no probs detected.

Here are some pictures from my Topaz:

Will test it today with Navigon and TomTom.

First impression: ...yes...a bit...lazy?

First have flashed ComecOne ( yeeeaahh, its fast!!!) and with that ROM Homescreen++ reports a

CPU clock from 553 MHz!!!!

Overclocked per default???

Sounds interesting, perhaps a hint for you for thr next release.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Kl@r@_Korn:
Can we get the Win 6.5 rom in german as well?

thx!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ziko:
Found a bug!!!

Edit: found a bug,cant dialing with the keypad. Dialig from Contacts is OK.

Only with keypad dont work, alows you typing only 2 numbers, than the touchscrenn freeze,phone works normal. After pressing "X" on the dialerscreen and reopening it, same, only 2 numbers !!!!

Will try to install another dialer.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] jlp_svk:
can I ask for original Topaz Opera CAB file??? or it's not working in WM6.5?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Poodlemastah:
I'll second that request, hopefully with working zoombar too.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] HTC Touch Freak:
Im downloading wm6.5 version on to my phone. Not sure how long that will take over edge but yeah I'm not near a computer right now and cant wait. if you need more testers ever just pm me here and i can hop on to irc. Will report any bugs I find.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] obsydian:
Testing

Just loaded the WM6.5 version, three questions:

1. Is there a radio included, if so which one ?

2. Is there a version with the silde to answer (i downlaoded the with HTC canvas ?

3. I came from a Niki, over there the guys are cooking HTC ROMs not Microsoft one, the HTC ones are far better, would you do the same ?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] avers:
Maybe little bugs in the 6.5 ver:

- No Bluetooth status on the taskbar (the BT is working well)

- In treeview (some file explorers, registry editors) the tree elements sometimes not selectable by stylus

- the ROM is a little bit slow (I'm trying to find the reasons)

- Some softwares cannot work with the .Net 3.7

I'm very happy to see the WM6.5 in my Topaz. :)

Waiting for the new release.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] obsydian:
Mine was quicker to install than the WM6.1 ROMs.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ziko:
Yes, it seems a litle bit slow, but not the ROM itself, its the touchscreen who is so "lazy".At the first start after flashing,you have to align the screen,that option is missing in this ROM. On my phone,under SETTINGS, executed the align screen utility,and after calibration the response is much faster after pressing on the screen.

For me its now,after align the screen, absolutely "normal", to say fast. Video,music,pictures... all is OK.

Solution for the not working dialer, found here:

http://rapidshare.com/files/242395044/l3v5yRhodiumDialer.CAB

From l3v5y itself :D:D:D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Poodlemastah:
Is there any way to replace the .Net 3.7 with the normal 3.5?

Tried installing 3.5 over the current install but it did not work.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] MC500:
reinstall .net 3.7
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ziko:
Me too, my loved "changescreen" didnt start :mad:

For sure, its early for CF 3.7, perhaps later in another build of the ROM.

Btw, found another Bug:

in Messenger, after taping in upper left corner, on the "inbox" button, the pull-down menu pops up and the screen freeze !!!

Its possible only to close the Window by taping on "X" and after the phone is normal.

Fix all the reportet bugs?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Poodlemastah:
Found a fix for the CF.

Just install 3.5 and then use .net configurator to make all apps use 3.5.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] avers:
Thank you for the solution!

After aligned the screen it gone more faster. Maybe the sensitivity wasn't right.

Other:

(.Netcf problem)

I installed .Netcf 3.5 and later the .Netcf 2.0 and configured to the earlier version, but the problem is permanent.

Not the .Netcf the reason of these malfunctions.

Than, what else?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] avers:
You're right.

I reinstalled the .Netcf 3.7 and no more error message. :)

It's working.

.Netcf 3.7 Cab:

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] timsah:
That is not correct...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] obsydian:
Hmm, I think i figured what the screen delay is, I am finding even after the alignment, I need to press a little harder to make a selection.

I just installed Advanced Config (and reinstaleld NET3.7), but the select any option I must hold for a second, I cannot just tap it ... :confused:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] obsydian:
Radio ?

Interesting I noticed, in general my signal was crap, but now even sat at my desk (the worst place for reception), I am nearly 2 to 3 bars, is it a different Radio or just displaying incorrectly ?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] NLCJ:
Question; is this including the Windows Mobile 6.5 home screen? The only pictures I saw were of the start menu. These pictures are from 'ziko' (so also the credits for him). But he had some wrong sentences so here they are for other people.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] pencilcase:
I can confirm the issue with advanced config ... took me ages to get through. some titanium plugins are still behaving weird (facebook for instance but i guess this is related more to the plugin than the os. can anyone try that plugin please ? found in dev&hack all wm6.5 plugins.

thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] obsydian:
Same issue also with RSS :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ziko:
Sorry for the pictures :o:o:o
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
Thanks for all the feedback!

Seems to me the issues are:

NetCF 3.7 is a corrupt OEM, but installed as a cab it works fine?

The Topaz Dialer can be replaced by the rhodium dialler and things start to work

I need to re-enable the screen alignment (disabled by HTC, not me!) during first boot

The lack of bluetooth status is due to the dialler, so changing that should fix it.

Note, I haven't included a radio ROM at all, and (probably) won't as I can't test it out to see what works...

I should have a new build with Rhodium OEMs, and 21812 SYS/XIP up later today for your delectation :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] NLCJ:
Installing... :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] rmdort:
Great ROM.. Using it on my topaz.. Thanks l3v5y

Some of the bugs i have found so far

* Using the dialpad freezes the device

* During SMS, when u enter the recipient's number, u cant select it from the suggestion list

* SMS -> When u send sms, the phone freezes occasionally.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] vichet007:
are these bugs of 6.1 or 6.5?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
I'm guessing that's the 6.5 with HTC PhoneCanvas?

There was a cab posted a few posts back with a link to my own cab of the Rhodium dialler. Does that work better?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] marcelvanblankers:
can i flash the 6.5 rom from sd card as i usually do?

or do i have to use another method, if so, wich one?

congrats on the first 6,5 rom for TD2
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ziko:
Nice promise, thanks in advance!!!!

Radio: with the originaly shipped ROM, 1.39.407, have 1-2 bars signalstrenght ( live a litle bit out of the town ), with the new one have just now, 4 bars signalstrenght ( mostly 3-4 )

Another positive feature: with the Originalrom Homescreen++, reports in standby,nothing is running, ~260mA powerleak. With the new 6.5 ROM have ~160mA !!!!!!!!! I think thats because, in the original ROM, the repllog.exe is running in the background. It was impossible to kill her, after killing the process, repllog.exe pops alone up. repllog.exe is "ActiveSync".

Absolutely great with the new ROM is 31mA powerleak in standby,without the screen. With the original ROM measured ~80mA !!!

Now we have the, from HTC promised standby of 350 hours.

Hope that feedback help our Chefcook to kill the remainig bugs.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
It should flash any way you like!

(I think TOPAIMG.nbh would be what you have to call it, not sure though)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
Sounds good!

I think if people don't mind loosing a bit of space that's gained from LZX compressing the ROM, the battery life could go up even more!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] NLCJ:
Okay, thank you very much. It works like a charm, but there are some idea's / issues:

First, when I called me, it took the phone 5 seconds to play the ringtone, normal? Second, maybe an idea to create it for landscape as well? :)

I didn't notice any radio difference?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
That's the WM6.1 build yes?

I've got a new WM6.1 ROM with lots of new OEM packs coming up soon... Can you tell me if the NetCF 3.7 works in the 6.1 ROM?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] NLCJ:
No, it was the Windows 6.5 ROM. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Poodlemastah:
It works until it runs out of suggestions for contacts.

It then kinda works half assed, you can push buttons 1/10 of the times.

and it cuts off half of the numbers:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] lion06:

thank you in advance :):):)

Did the version l3v5y_Topaz_Concept_21041_21042_V1.3_0407 just geflascht have a problem because the device goes up and then freezes at approximately 75% of all remains to be light and it is only because of lead.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] vichet007:
anyone found that the calculator does not work on portrait mode for WM 6.5?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
What exactly doesn't work?

Does it not load, or does it load then crash, or does it not display images, but then work in landscape?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] vichet007:
The issue on portrait mode is that the application starts properly but when we press any number, it does not display on the screen..

For landscape mode, when the number is pressed, it displays on the screen, but there's no result shown when pressing "="..
